Scheduling Team Administrator

We're looking for someone with excellent administration skills to join our Back Office Scheduling Team at Royal Primary Care on a permanent contract.

1 x 18 hour post

Our 9 surgeries can get busy, and our healthcare professionals rely on our efficient administrative support. An ability to multitask and be super organised is a must. Recognising priorities and reaching deadlines and targets is all part of working within the back office. Given the service we provide, we want you to demonstrate your written and verbal communication skills and have the ability to work accurately under pressure. We work with sensitive patient information and, if you join us, you'll be committed to always maintaining strict confidentiality.

Excel experience is desirable along with medical terminology, however not a must as training can be given to the right candidate. Must have a keen eye for detail and accuracy in data input is a must.

"Our administration and reception colleagues really are the backbone of our primary care service. We couldn't do what we do without your support and we know how much our patients value your professionalism too. If you want to join our team, we'd love to hear from you."

Currently rated "Good" by the Care Quality Commission, we're striving towards being Outstanding. Our vision is to be an exceptional provider of family medicine, dedicated to our patients, and we're on a mission to improve our community's health and reduce inequality.

Royal Primary Care surgeries are part of Chesterfield Royal Hospital Foundation Trust and this brings the benefits of being part of a larger organisation. As well as an NHS pension, you'll have access to training and development opportunities and a whole raft of well-being initiatives to look after your physical and mental health. At Royal Primary Care, your happiness is at the heart of our appraisal system and we place great importance on everyone feeling included. You'll have an equal say in how we look after you through access to our annual staff survey.
